Make no mistake, the Broncos are looking for a cornerback. The Broncos visited with veteran cornerback Dunta Robinson earlier Friday before he reportedly agreed to a three-year contract later in the day with the Kansas City Chiefs. The Broncos never got deep into negotiations.

Robinson, 30, was released last week by the Atlanta Falcons. Because he was then classified as a “street” free agent, Robinson was eligible to sign with a team, as opposed to the other players who won’t be officially classified as free agents until Tuesday.

Robinson is a physical corner who is better against the run than he is in coverage. In fact, he is one of the worst cover corners in the NFL. According to Pro Football Focus, opponents had the fifth-highest passer rating while throwing in his direction at 102.4. The worst cover corner? Philadelphia’s Nnamdi Asomugha who allowed a 120.6 passer rating.

Their offensive plans, which now include QB Kevin Kolb throwing to a $120 million receiver in Larry Fitzgerald, took a hit when RB Ryan Williams suffered a ruptured tendon in his knee in the preseason. Their two-deep is a huge question mark. Former Pro Bowl safety Adrian Wilson tore a biceps tendon, and they lack a top-shelf pass rusher. Prediction: 9-7

St. Louis Rams

They have a potential franchise QB in Sam Bradford, who was cocooned in two-tight end and two-back looks last season as a rookie, but will not have that luxury this year in Josh McDaniels’ more open formations. They haven’t shown they can protect their most prized player in this preseason, and their run defense is an enormous question mark. Prediction: 6-10

Champ Bailey got his big contract in the offseason, so now the Broncos star cornerback is a spectator in the Nnamdi Asomugha sweepstakes, just like the rest of us.

The Raiders cornerback is among the most coveted free agents currently on the market. Bailey would have been in a similar situation had he not signed a new four-year, $43 million deal with the Broncos in late February, shortly before the lockout started. Bailey’s deal includes $22 million in guaranteed money.
